You just need to make sure your average team quality is below 80% and it's gonna work. Be careful though: you'll end-up with top notch level-1 teams which are probably more diffcult to beat than teams of better quality from your level.
Your crappy players were probably 1% quality that explains why your overall quality dropped. But this dude doesn't have 1% players to do this so it won't work for him.
